“Japan, what a beautiful place.” says Carl. Carl Stanley, a young man from London, England has made his trip to Japan to continue his studies as an Information Technology Expert. In Japan, he will take his PhD test in University of Tokyo, one of the best universities in Japan. As of 7.48am, Carl has landed on Japan from London. His flight was 16 hours on an American Airline FTR778. “Now, where is this University of Tokyo?” Carl asked himself. He moves towards the taxi stands. When he reached the destination, he enquired one of the taxi drivers, “Can you please take me to the University of Tokyo?” The taxi was unclear with the difference of language. “I think he didn’t understand Me.” thought Carl. He took out a brochure of University of Tokyo and without delay the taxi responded and kindly asked Carl to get in the taxi. In Japan, awaiting Carl Stanley is a new life, new environment, and for sure, lots of adventure.
In the taxi, Carl switched on his notebook to check on his project work that he will be presenting at the campus. He proof read his essays, checked his slides, and make sure that they are aligned. Once done checking his assignment, he felt tired after the long flight. He thought to himself, “Hmmm…I think there’s still quite a distance until I reach the university, I shall take a short snooze.” So he did. After a moment, he woke up. He had reached his destination, the University of Tokyo. He paid the driver ¥700. He exits the taxi. In front of him was the biggest university in Japan, he smiled. As he walked in to the campus, he registered himself into the university. He will stay in a 2 scholar dormitory which another spot is still unoccupied. After checking in, he went to his dorm to unpack. He finishes unpacking in approximately 15 minutes. Almost immediately, another scholar knocks on the door. Carl goes to the door and opened it. In front of him was the most attractive individual that he had ever seen. “Hi, I’m Helen. You are?” “Hi, I’m Carl. I’m guessing that we’re roommates?” “Yes, we are” They shook hands and smiled to each other.
Helen walked in and went to the other side of the room to unpack. Carl somehow couldn’t keep his eyes off her. He thought “No, I should stop looking at her. It would give her a bad impression of me.” So Carl looked away and concentrates back on unpacking. After finish unpacking, he was feeling hungry. So he wanted to go for lunch. He approached Helen and said “Hey, I’m going out for lunch. I won’t be back so soon. So make yourself comfortable here.” She replied “Sure. Have a nice day.” Carl walked out of the room and thought, “Hmmm, she’s cute.” As he walked to a nearby coffee shop, he had Helen in his mind all they way. Will this turn out to be a love story in Japan?
